10.3.3 Response Time in the Case of Direct Access in the Time Interrupt OB
(OB 13)
If the inputs are read in and the outputs are activated by direct access in the time interrupt OB, the
following applies for the response time:

Explanation of Figure 10-3
If input signal   changes after the relevant direct access   in OB 13, the change will be
recognized in the next possible OB 13 call. It is possible in the following cases:
• When the interval time for OB 13   has elapsed (250 msec. in the example)
• When the next synchronization point   has been reached (100 msec. in the example or
20 msec. in general).
10.3.4 Response Time in the Case of Direct Access in the Process Interrupt OB
(OB 2)
If the inputs are connected to a module with interrupt capability and the outputs are directly
accessed in the process interrupt OB, the following applies for the response time to a falling edge
at the input:
